Pretty 1988 Saab 900 Turbo Convertible.  Right color.  Super low miles!!!! 51,421 actual miles. Picked up from a elderly client who barely drove her. She spent a lot of time in a barn.  There is almost no rust that I can tell. If you are a saab nut, like me, you know what I mean.  No rust, rot in the usual spots(bottom of the doors, a-frame, etc)  The following is a summary of the pros and cons:

Pros
(1) No rust.  No rust.  No rust
(2) Outrageously low miles
(3) Automatic transmission shifts and drives very well.  Pretty smooth
(4) Steering and suspension tight and right. No wabbles, no stories.
(5)Brand new tires and four wheel alignment.  Original Pirellis P6 were all dry rot.  They were probably the original tires that was standard when purchased new.
(6) Top appears to have been replaced. No rips no holes.

(7) Rare and getting harder to find. 

(8) A/C compressor clicks on, but it doesn't feel that cold. It probably need to be recharge to make it colder)

(9) Pre-GM stuff.  When saab was saab

Cons: 
(1) Front seats bottoms need attention. See pixs
(2)Some paint imperfection on rear.  See pixs
(3) Radio does not work

(4) Small stone chip on center of windshield. See pixs

(5) Top goes up and down.  She does need some encouragement to go up.  The motor seems slow at times.

 

Please see all pix. She is not 100% perfect.  But, does not need much to be.  She is rock solid and with some attention to the interior, and misc small items, you have a nice car.  Considering her age and less and less on the road in this condition, you can not loss.

Let me know if you have any questions.  Thanks

Happy saabing

GM recalling 250,000 SUVs over door electronics

Mon, 20 Aug 2012

After a door-fire investigation that dates back to February, the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration has officially announced a recall today that affects around 250,000 General Motors SUVs for a faulty driver's door module. The recall applies to the Buick Rainier, Chevrolet Trailblazer, GMC Envoy, Isuzu Ascender and Saab 9-7X from the 2006 and 2007 model years, as well as the 2006 Chevrolet Trailblazer EXT and GMC Envoy XL for vehicles sold and/or registered in the Snow Belt.
Road salt use in these midwestern and northern states can lead to corrosion of the driver's door module on these GMT360 and GMT370 vehicles, which allows water to come in contact with the circuit board. If shorted out, the vehicle's power door locks and power windows will not work, and could possibly lead to overheating and, in some circumstances, a fire. No official word on how many total vehicles caught on fire, but back in June, 28 fires had been reported to the government agency. A fix for the problem is still being worked out, but all affected vehicle owners will be notified by GM.

Saab owner may speed up relaunch with gas-powered 9-3

Wed, 21 Nov 2012

National Electric Vehicle Sweden, the new owner of Saab, has good news for you if you happened to miss out on picking up a 9-3 before the company plummeted through bankruptcy. Automotive News Europe reports NEVS may offer a gasoline-powered 9-3 in 2013. That move would effectively step up the brand's re-launch plan by a full year. Originally, the company planned to introduce an electric vehicle in 2014, but NEVS is currently investigating ways to start production next summer using "a 9-3 with a traditional powertrain" in order to generate more cash for the electrification effort.
NEVS purchased Saab earlier this year with the intent of resurrecting the brand with a fully electric product portfolio. The new EVs would theoretically ride on the Saab Phoenix platform and be manufactured at the automaker's plant in Trollhattan, Sweden. The report of a resurrected gasoline model came courtesy of Mikael Oestlund, a company spokesperson familiar with the company's workings.

Victor Muller to pay Sweden back taxes for Saab work

Thu, 03 Oct 2013

Victor Muller, Saab's CEO from 2010 to 2011, has been ordered by the Swedish court to pay the back taxes he owes the country for his work at Saab, Autoweek and Volkskrant report. When he was the automaker's CEO he received a salary of about 8 million Swedish Krona ($1.25 million), which was recorded as a reward for consultancy work for a company in the US that Muller owns. The move allowed him to evade taxes for awhile, but the court has ordered him to pay taxes on his full salary.
Muller, who is also CEO of Spyker, and two other Saab executives were accused of accounting fraud in May, which took place in 2010 and 2011. According to reports, Muller maintains that he is not subject to taxes in Sweden.
